theoretical super duper reflection chamber

ok I have been thinking about this after noticing that when you hang mylar on a wall that is vertical that most of the light will actually bounce down onto the floor. I tried bouncing light at more of an angle and what do you know??? It captures the light that is going down and bounces it back to the plant better. now if the plants were arranged in a circle under the lamp you could use a center reflector that bounces light out in a circle to the plants and have walls on the outside of them bouncing light also. this way the plants would be getting light from all sides evenly "bottom too". I will make a cardboard model within a few days and post pics but for now I included a drawing.

Interesting.... ;)

Just add another light.. hehehe

I have tried such reflection techniques.. in the end, the foilage is always so dense that no light ever makes it past the canopy anyway..

i look forward to seeing your cardboard model..

i love you

or you could just not grow at all then another light wouldnt be needed :-). ok I made a small cardboard model and placed a lighter in the middle and illuminated it from the top with a little flashlight. as you can see the flashlight glows like Rudolphs nose. I also did another pic without the cardboard and as you can see the flashlight isnt nearly as bright.

maybe the idea could be perfected in a raytracing program. almost a virtual wind tunnel equivalent.
I bet this way using a 250watt light could be just as good as 1000watts in a regular grow

oh one more thing.....
Knowm.... the canopy cant go to the very edge of usable light. this way everywhere underneath becomes lit and the bottom buds will be given a lot more light and without the hassle or cost of adding more lights

i like your example.. NICE

GOOD JOB

i love you

I just noticed I used the word flashlight twice in that one post where I meant to say lighter. ooops :-).

ok I simulated a canopy for like 1 plant. i used a rolled up piece of paper and a cardboard top. again with and without reflector pics. this time you can see the flashlight "tri led".

thats a great example of thinking outside the grow box
